Hi Dear,
your scan report shows only a gestation sac with no fetal pole and that to less than your gestation age. A gestation sac of 6 weeks should doccument a fetal pole in a normal pregnancy. Also you are having spotting per vaginum. In such cases the diagnosis goes more towards missed abortion buy this has to be confirmed by a repeat scan after a weak. Till than you can continue the prescribed medicines. However, the things can be very well confirmed with B HCG test repeated after 48 hrs, which will tell you the exact picture
All the very best

Hi,
If you are sure of your dates and are regular with your cycles, your dates do not correspond with your sonographic gestational age and so you would need a follow up sonogram to fix the exact gestational age. You have a threatened abortion and as such should take absolute bed rest, avoid all forms of stress including intercourse, follow your doctor's instructions, repeat serum beta-hCG levels every 48 hours as doubling titres indicate good prognosis and have follow up sonograms. Hope your query has been answered. Wish you good health.
